Il HORD FOR CRINKS.

Cranks. my son? The world is full
of them. What would we do were it
not for the cranksl How slowly the
tired old world would move, did not
the cranks keepit rushing along! Col
umbus was crank on the subject of
American discovery and circumnaviSa-
ton, and at last he met the fate of most
cranks, was thrown into prison, and
died in poverty and disgrace. Greatly
vcneratcd nowl Oh, yes, Telemachus,
we usually esteem crank most pro-
foundly after we starye him to death.
Harvey was crank on the subject of
the circulation of the blood; Calico
was an astronomical crank; Fulton was
crank on the subject Of steam naviga.
ton. Morse was telegraph crank; all
the old abolitioninists were cranks,
John Bunyan was crank: any man
who doesn't think as you do, my son,
is crank
And by and by the crank you de-
spise will have his name in every mans
mouth, and half-completed monument
to his memory crumbling down in a
dozen cities, while nobody outside Of
your native village viii know that you
ever lived Deal gently with the
crank, my boy. OF course some cranks
are crankier than others, but do you be
very slow to sneer at man because he
knows only ono thing and you can't
understand him. A crank, says Telema-
chus, is thing that turns something, it
makes the wheels go round, it insures
progress. True, it turns the same
wheel all the time, and it can't do any
thing else, but that's what keeps the
ship going ahead.
The thing that goes in for variety,
versatility, that changes its position a
hundred times day, that is no crank;
that is the weather my son.
What2 You nevertheless thank Heaven
you are not crank? Don't do that
my son. Maybe you couldn't be a
crank if yon would. Heaven is not
very particular when it wants a
weathervane; almost any man viii do
for that But when it wants crank,
my boy, 1t looks about very carefully,
for the best man in the community.
Before you thank Heaven that you are
not crank, examine yourself carefully,
and see what is the deficiency that de-
bars you from such an election. Bob
Burdctte in Burlington Hawkeyc.
How true the above is, that when a
man thinks little out of the ordinary
rut he is called crank. How handy
the word is. 1t is no argument TO say
that a man is "crank." Judge
Deady used that wonderful argument
about Gov. Pennoyer. But the "crank"
is turning the peoples minds, and
Deadly is destined. Cranks are not al
ways the fools of the earth.

sigii,t's Cat 0at OF The Bag.

Under the above heading the Eve
ming Democrat of this city not long
since published the following from It's
Salem correspondent.
Senator Siglin's frankncss has got
him into trouble. The proceedings of
the investigation committee Of the
Siglin- Wager matter were kept as
quiet as possible, but part Of the
doings of the committee have leaked
ont. It transpires that there were
only two witnesses on the stand-C
s. jackson, associate editos Of the
East Oregonian, and Senator Siglin him
self. In answer to questions by Nil.
Ter, Of Josephine, he stated with frank-
ness why he voted for the s'iins's'
nominees. He declared that he did it
hoping to reap some benefit for him.
self, in being favored when the stand
ing committees were appointed. After
Miller was through questioning Siglin,
he turned to Wager and asked him:
'Have you any questions 10 ask the
witness?"
"only one" responded the senator,
"and that is this" Then turning to
Siglin. he said, Il understand you to
say, Shen, that when you voted for
Carson you did so, not for he interest
of the public, whose servant you are,
not for the interest of your country,
but solely with a view to your own
personal advantagep
Miller jumped to his feet aud excitedly
protested against the witness being
asked any such question. But the
stenographer had recorded the words,
and now the question is a matter Of
record What Senator Siglin's answer
was, no one knows nor cares, because
the question carried the answer with
it Senator Wager says that he would
60 back to his constituents, provided
he was expelled, with that one ques-
tion as the issue, and be practically
unanimously returned to his seat And
he would be -Oregonian.
